PNF Stretching

PNF Stretching (proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation) If you do not have a partner available for stretching, you can utilize a device may be used to incorporate this style of stretching.

For example, while stretching the hamstrings from a supine position and with one leg elevated, a towel (the device) may be placed behind the heel. By pulling the towel toward the upper body, the hamstrings will be stretched.
